There has been a cockup where the 81/82 have been included on the new timetable posters along with the 233 despite the latter replacing the former. I believe they were also still appearing on the journey planner and the yournextbus system.
They didn't show up in the yournextbus when I checked it on Monday morning. That's not to say they weren't showing from other stops. Putting both posters up is just stupid, especially as there's no date displayed clearly on either, or a "From 2/9/18" note.There has been a cockup where the 81/82 have been included on the new timetable posters along with the 233 despite the latter replacing the former.

As you attached above, the whole sheet is from the 02/09/18, the 81/82 shouldn’t be included.They didn't show up in the yournextbus when I checked it on Monday morning.

All the single decks at Waterloo are in a common pool really, so it’ll either be a Tempo or a Centro or an Omnicity, although the latter would be rarer as they don’t have as many.If anyone is able to answer I'd be interested to find out typically what vehicles do Yorkshire Tiger use on the 358 Huddersfield to Ashenhurst service and is the route interworked with any other services?
West Yorkshire-based Yorkshire Tiger has been ordered to pay £21,750 after it failed to meet reliability and punctuality standards. It has also been given a formal warning for failing to notify changes of directors and transport managers.
The Arriva subsidiary, running buses in Leeds, Bradford, Halifax, Huddersfield, Dewsbury and Wakefield, “consistently operated at a level significantly below the expected standards set by the industry regulator,” ruled Deputy Traffic Commissioner (DTC) Anthony Secular.
The figures compare with the requirement that registered local services should operate 95% of routes no more than one minute early or up to five minutes late.
Well the 78/X78 between Halifax and Brighouse has been axed as of tonight.
The replacement that is the TJ Walsh operated 257/258, there suppose to be addtional journeys on the 258 to partially replace the Yorkshire Tiger's short lived 78/X78. The only irritaion is that WY Metro are still showing the old timetable from 2015 rathter than the new one so I wouldn't be too suprised if this lack of advertising is to try and kill off another route by stealth.
You do realise that article is from 2016I see that Yorkshire Tiger has been fined almost £22K over its punctuality/reliability. Clearly considered much more serious than Connexions and Transdev in Yorkshire who have both been hauled in front of the Traffic Commissioner in the past year but weren't fined as far as I can remember.

I believe it will interwork with their other Metro tenders, the 356 and 360
Didn't realise they'd closed Honley! Guess that shows how long it's been since I went down the Penistone line... surprised though, as Waterloo doesn't seem noticeably busier yet Tiger seem to still be running as many services in Huddersfield. Does that mean a fair few vehicles coming over from Elland each day?Although note that following the allocation changes since Honley depot closed, it could equally be a Solo or an MCV Evolution.
Just passed Waterloo and they're not short of spare vehicles (used to always be deserted apart from the Christmas trees by quarter to five in the evening) so the reduced service isn't due to them spreading themselves too thinly. Despite the cut in frequency leading to folk standing as far as Kirkburton even on full-size buses, I've seen Solos on the 233 more frequently lately.3 boards moved to Elland, the rest to Waterloo, but the 81/82/85 changes reduced the pvr by a few but it still went up by about 10
Honley depot is currently full of all the withdrawn and surplus stock
Why would it not be valid as Tiger is part of Arriva.Any bus on Yorkshire Tiger routes seen in Arriva Livery is as a result of YT taking Arriva cast off's and they have be reliveried. The problem comes if a passenger has an Arriva only ticket and tries to board a YT bus still in Arriva livery - tough look not valid.
No surprise at Tiger pulling out, the amount of times the drivers just sat in the back wall, letting First pick up all the passengers, before pulling in at the last second.
It must be the first time First and it’s predecessors have had Golcar all to themselves since about 1994
Despite the common ownership, there's no cross-validity between Tiger and Arriva Yorkshire. The only exception I'm aware of being that both accepted (Arriva) Northern rail tickets during the strikes last year.Why would it not be valid as Tiger is part of Arriva.

Don't know about Bradford, but I heard that First have won back the X58 Halifax - Rochdale. Perhaps this will mean the end of the unhelpful 70 minute service interval and return to hourly as First should have another hourly service with some spare layover in Halifax.Does Anyone know whos won the Bradford area Contracts from September, as the company have deregistered all their tendered operations in the area?
TLC Travel have won services 606, 629, 630, 633, 634, 649, 656, 680, 671, 675, 677, 678, 679, 680Does Anyone know whos won the Bradford area Contracts from September, as the company have deregistered all their tendered operations in the area?

Transdev have won services 737, 747, 757
Of course Transdev were looking for drivers at their new Idle depot for the Flyer work, and there was discussion if they were taking on YT's site. Guess that losing that work made Idle unviable for YT.
Doesn't help answer your question mind NOTE: Until @Andyh82 answered 3.24 seconds before I posted
From their other registrations they must be concentrating more on the Huddersfield operation. It will be Interesting to see if the new Transdev will take over the former Yorkshire Tiger Depot in Idle
